Default Causes of highly elevated idle speed

There isn't any hose. The EACV's passages are internal to itself and to the
throttle body, and you can only get to the throttle body ones with the air
cleaner pipe removed. Upstream of the throttle plate are two intake ports:
One goes to the EACV, one to the Fast Idle Valve. You can plug them with
your finger to test for flow.

If you unplug the EACV's electrical connector, the EACV will snap shut if
it's not sticking, and (when the car is full-warm) idle will drop to 650
rpm.
